Pet Health

Ensuring that your pet is well cared for throughout all the stages of life is a critical part of our mission and core values

Prevention is key when it comes to your pet’s health. It is proven that pets who receive regular wellness care live longer, healthier lives than those who do not. The time and effort invested in health & wellness programs has rewards for both pets and their owners. Dogs and cats age far quicker than humans, so it is even more crucial for pets to receive regular exams.

Additionally, the risks of arthritis, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, hormone disorders, and kidney and liver problems all increase with age. Because you spend the most time with your pet, you are your pet’s expert, as well as his or her greatest advocate. You’ll find some helpful information on this page for keeping your pet healthy. If you have any questions about your pet’s health, please do not hesitate to contact us.

We often hear about – and, in many cases, think about – the impact of human aging on individual and societal health and wellbeing. It turns out that many effects of aging are shared by people and pets.
